SANA returned to Bab Al Tabbaneh today for a medical and educational mission.
Â
Accompanying SANA was midwife Diana Chalak who was on her first outreach mission.
Â
As always, it was a busy day for SANA’s team who carried out full assessments inclusive of sonographic evaluation. It was Diana who carried out the scans under the guidance of Dr. Reem S. Abu-Rustum as she applied the 6 Step Approach to obstetrical sonography. She was able to determine presentation, viability, number of fetuses, assess amniotic fluid and placental location. She commenced with the biometric planes in order to ascertain dates. SANA redated 21% of the patients seen.
Â
Several patients required follow up and care and this was all organized by the able MSF team and their superb midwife Huwaida.
Â
At the end of another rewarding day, the team headed back home and plans were made for the next visit to Bab Al Tabbaneh
